Commit 60fa6ae6e6d0 ("ACPI: EC: Install address space handler at the
namespace root") caused _REG methods for EC operation regions outside
the EC device scope to be evaluated which on some systems leads to the
evaluation of _REG methods in the scopes of device objects representing
devices that are not present and not functional according to the _STA
return values. Some of those device objects represent EC "alternatives"
and if _REG is evaluated for their operation regions, the platform
firmware may be confused and the platform may start to behave
incorrectly.

To avoid this problem, only evaluate _REG for EC operation regions
located in the scopes of device objects representing known-to-be-present
devices.

For this purpose, partially revert commit 60fa6ae6e6d0 and trigger the
evaluation of _REG for EC operation regions from acpi_bus_attach() for
the known-valid devices.

A subsequent change will need to pass a depth argument to
acpi_execute_reg_methods(), so prepare that function for it.

No intentional functional changes.

After starting to install the EC address space handler at the ACPI
namespace root, if there is an "orphan" _REG method in the EC device's
scope, it will not be evaluated any more.  This breaks EC operation
regions on some systems, like Asus gu605.

To address this, use a wrapper around an existing ACPICA function to
look for an "orphan" _REG method in the EC device scope and evaluate
it if present.

<title>ACPI: EC: Avoid returning AE_OK on errors in address space handler</title>

<content type='text'>
If an error code other than EINVAL, ENODEV or ETIME is returned
by acpi_ec_read() / acpi_ec_write(), then AE_OK is incorrectly
returned by acpi_ec_space_handler().

Fix this by only returning AE_OK on success, and return AE_ERROR
otherwise.

When a multi-byte address space access is requested, acpi_ec_read()/
acpi_ec_write() is being called multiple times.

Abort such operations if a single call to acpi_ec_read() /
acpi_ec_write() fails, as the data read from / written to the EC
might be incomplete.

<content type='text'>
It is reported that _DSM evaluation fails in ucsi_acpi_dsm() on Lenovo
IdeaPad Pro 5 due to a missing address space handler for the EC address
space:

 ACPI Error: No handler for Region [ECSI] (000000007b8176ee) [EmbeddedControl] (20230628/evregion-130)

This happens because if there is no ECDT, the EC driver only registers
the EC address space handler for operation regions defined in the EC
device scope of the ACPI namespace while the operation region being
accessed by the _DSM in question is located beyond that scope.

To address this, modify the ACPI EC driver to install the EC address
space handler at the root of the ACPI namespace for the first EC that
can be found regardless of whether or not an ECDT is present.

Note that this change is consistent with some examples in the ACPI
specification in which EC operation regions located outside the EC
device scope are used (for example, see Section 9.17.15 in ACPI 6.5),
so the current behavior of the EC driver is arguably questionable.

<content type='text'>
Commit eb9299beadbd ("ACPI: EC: Use a spin lock without disabing
interrupts") introduced an unexpected user-visible change in
behavior, which is a significant CPU load increase when the EC
is in use.

This most likely happens due to increased spinlock contention
and so reducing this effect would require a major rework of the
EC driver locking.  There is no time for this in the current
cycle, so revert commit eb9299beadbd.

Since all of the ACPI EC driver code runs in thread context after recent
changes, it does not need to disable interrupts on the local CPU when
acquiring a spin lock.

Make it use the spin lock without disabling interrupts.

After commit 7a36b901a6eb ("ACPI: OSL: Use a threaded interrupt handler
for SCI") all of the EC code runs in thread context on all systems where
EC events are signaled through a GPE.

It may as well run in thread context on systems using a dedicated IRQ
for EC events signaling, so make it use a threaded handler for that IRQ.
